    Ideal location for visiting place in Glencolmcille. Superb hosts Leon and Gillian. Leon was a fountain of knowledge on the area, places to visits and tips. Nothing was too much trouble for them and even had home made croissants for breakfast. Delicious!!

    Aras Ghleann Cholm Cille is a great host to stay in Co. Donegal. You can feel the magic of IRELAND 🇮🇪 when exploring Wild Atlantic Way. Leon and Gillian will make everything for you to feel like staying at home. The room was clean, and the bed was comfortable. You also have a private shower in the room with fresh towels. There was good Continental Breakfast with fresh coffee in the morning for the good start of the day. The place is located in Malin More, which makes it a perfect base for exploring: - Silver Strand, 7 min drive - Glencolmcille Folk Village, 5 min drive - John Eoinín's Pub, 6 min drive - The Rusty Mackerel Pub, 15 min drive ( Saturday place was busy because live music) -Sliabh Liag Car Park and Cliffs view point 18 min drive( great trails for walking, running, and hikes) - Sliabh Liag Boat Trips, 18 min drive

    One of the beds was not as comfortable as the others (double bed).

    The hosts were very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. We ended up taking a great, unplanned trip to the beach based on their recommendation and had a great time. The place was clean, quiet, and had a great room for our family of six.

    Leon and Gill were absolutely lovely hosts. First of all their B&B is located in a beautiful place. It is very peacefull. They did everything to accommodate me: keeping my bike dry, preparing breakfast earlier than planned. I was even treated to some delicious home-made muffins. Many thanks to them. It was a pleasure to meet and chat with them.

    I liked the property very much, great location, quiet place, fantastic service (breakfast and room service). Possibly the best B&B in that area! I got a better twin room upgrade in the same price with the fabulous view ! The hosts Leo and Jo are amazing and friendly people willing to help with places to visit in this area

    We really enjoyed our stay. Our hosts were so friendly and had great suggestions for things we could do while in the area. Went in town for dinner and visited Rortys bar. We had a great time. Musicians came in and played Irish music.

    Whenever we plan a vacation in Donegal it is always Aras. This was our third time in the space of three years. The owners, Leon and Gillian, are very kind and lovely people so no wonder the place has a very relaxed atmosphere. It is very conveniently located, close to the Silver Strand Beach, some stunning hiking routes, Leon can recommend many, the Famine Village, Slieve League and many others. We love the place and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a home away from home.
